Abdul Twebti

Colorist & Post Supervisor

Since then, I have worked alongside filmmakers and visual artists on a rich variety of projects, from cinema to television, online videos, and gallery exhibitions.

No two projects are alike, just as no two filmmakers or cinematographers are. While technical expertise is essential and we strive to master it, the goal is to help filmmakers achieve their desired look. Understanding a filmmaker's needs and intentions, navigating the challenges of each project, and assisting in refining and experimenting with the visual tone are the most rewarding aspects of every collaboration.

In addition to working as a colourist with Planemo, among others, I also work as a post-production supervisor and editor.

Jorge Piquer Rodríguez

DOP & Colorist

Born in Almeria, Spain 1984, Jorge immigrated to Brussels, Belgium, where he is currently based. During his studies in Fine Arts at the University of Valencia, Jorge experimented with video art and photography leading to the production of his first works as a visual artist.

After his studies, Jorge debuted in the film industry as a camera assistant, DOP and a self-taught colourist. Jorge’s hands-on experience in post-production solidly contributed to his profound understanding of challenges of the digital era. It also made him pursue his research on the combination of analog and digital tools as well as mixed mediums or techniques.

For the past 10 years Jorge’s background has been oscillating around freelancing in cinematography and colour grading for feature-films, documentaries, short-films as well as commercials. He co-founded La Ignorancia in 2006 where he produced varied moving image works, i.a. dance films, installations and performances.

He also has collaborated with multiple international artists, filmmakers and producers, e.g. Salome Lamas, Tamer el Said, Marcin Malaszczak, Josephine Decker, Khristine Gillard, Jen Debauche.

Nour Yazbeck

Colorist

Born and raised in Lebanon, Nour moved to Berlin in 2020 to complete her Masters in Directing.

During her studies in Beirut, she developed skills as cinematographer, first assistant director, and editor; until she found herself in directing. She established her path by winning first prize at the 26th edition of the European Film Festival in Lebanon for her first short film Chronique de la Vacuité (Void Chronicle). She consequently got invited to FID Marseille Festival 2022.

Her passion for cinematography persisted and soon shifted to color grading, the post-production process that gives her creative freedom as well as collaboration with the artists and contribution to their cinematic vision. While developing personal projects as an auteur, she has been color grading documentaries, feature and short films.
